Page Titles and $category_name$

Hey alll,

I've got a situation where I'd like LinksSQL to only display the name of a subcategory as the page title. Currently however, my page titles on category.html are called using the $category_name$ variable, which always prints out something like this as the page title:

MainCategory: Subcategory1: Subcategory2: Site Title

When someone is on a subcategory page I'd like it to look like this however:
(Without the top categories showing)

Subcategory 2: Site Title

Has anybody figured out how to do this?, or perhaps created a global for "$subcategory_name$" ?

Thanks :)

<%Title%>

?

Otherwise, try doing a <%GT::Template::dump%> tag call, and that will show you all the available tags you have.

Nah <%title%> does the same thing, I did that Dump you mentioned however, and it looks like there's a category_short variable I can use.

Thanks for the tip Andy, :)

hows the new spider going?

Glad to hear it :)

>>>hows the new spider going?<<<

I put it out in beta with a couple of people, and quite a few bugs have been found. I'm working on getting them fixed up before I re-do the beta-testing, to be pretty sure there are no major bugs in the plugin.
